I am writing to thank Tunica residents for their generosity in helping thousands of suffering children worldwide this Christmas. Through their efforts, we were able to conrtibute towards 16,653 shoeboxes collected within the Northwest Mississippi area – filled with toys, school supplies and hygiene items – or Operation Christmas Child, the world’s largest Christmas project of its kind. These simple gift-filled shoeboxes communicate to needy children that they are loved and not forgotten.
